Which is why it was so exciting when Pottermore announced that Eddie's about to expand his role in the wizarding world – as the narrator of the new Fantastic Beasts audiobook.

The new book – released on 14 March this year – will be an updated version of J.K. Rowling's Hogwarts Library spin-off, which was originally published in 2001.

It'll have a brand new (really pretty) cover, and will include information about six new magical creatures. But most importantly, according to Pottermore, it'll include a new foreword by Newt Scamander – which may give us a hint of what's to come in the upcoming Fantastic Beasts movies.

Obviously, though, the best part is that Eddie will be narrating the audiobook in character as Newt.
